Canada's Capital Knitters

I surfed around and could not find one. A webring for knitters in Ottawa. So, I thought I'd start one, after all, Toronto's got - what? - four of them?I'll set this up through Ringsurf and hopefully, some of you will find this page. I may add little tidbits to the page, knitterly events, happenings and such, that is of interest to us here, and if you wish to contribute to that, please feel free.

I'm hoping that, through this page, we can find out more about the knit "Scene" in Ottawa. IS there a knit scene in Ottawa? :) I know I KIP all the time, but I haven't seen YOU out there yet!

Grab a button, grab the code and lets see if there are some Chicks With Sticks and Men With Balls in Canada's Capital! (You can see it was killing me to not title this post "Knitting in the Knation's Kapital", can't you.)

Buttons for you, save to your own server, please. Join by clicking "Join" in the Ringsurf code.

Edited to add: I may not need to say this, but there is no social interaction expected or required to participate in the ring.

Great idea! I've joined the web ring, and will mention it on my blog as well. As for the Ottawa knit scene, there is an Ottawa Knitting Yahoo group (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ottawaknitting/) and are regular knitting get-togethers are various Bridgehead cafes (you can get details at the yahoo group). As well, there are quite a few Ottawa knit bloggers - I have a list on my blog. And I've now added you to it!
